Today’s comic is a tribute to Steve Jobs who passed last week. Anyone who owns a piece of his technology appreciates the efforts to achieve design perfection in each piece. I know my Mac will get the job done for my graphics customers, easily, quickly and without headaches. All the software will communicate. My computer will figure out how to talk to my cameras, audio devices, etc without me having to tweak code, hunt for drivers, or locate that disk filed in a “safe spot” so I would never, ever find it again. My iPhone will offer me more communication opportunities than I can ever dream of. I can check the weather, my email, my website, and google a thought in the middle of the woods… I can even find my way OUT of the woods.
We use these devices, but we have no idea of the time, effort, trials, and errors that went into the design. These are specifically made to be useful, convenient and pleasing to the eye. Everyone should enjoy their tools. There is no reason for them to be ugly. Steve Jobs was a stickler for that.
And so, Entities-R-Us honors Mr. Job’s and all he brought to our world.
Ciao for now Steve! Stop in for some EVPs!

*grins* My PC can do all that too.
Mine too… except only when it wants to.
